setting 20 gallon highs on a 29 gal stand

I have a 29 gal (30 inch wide) iron stand and I want to put a pair of 20 high tanks on it, top and bottom.Because the frame is longer than the tank, there won't be iron under one end wall .Do I need a board under each tank?

Considering the thickness of the glass which is probably 5mm you are still providing significant corner support so you will be fine. I personally would put a board simply to cover up the excess gaps on both ends

Grandson was helping me, we didn't get a board. I set it to one side, so I have room for a small board and a coffee cup on the other side. Should they be centered? (tough on the fish to drain and lift, but doable.)
